BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir, Chicago - Hindu temple in Bartlett - 1851 Pramukh Swami Road, USA

My 1st time experiencing Diwali Celebrations and my 1st time visiting this temple. The temple was lit up with so many different colors, inside as well as outside and it looked spectacular!. The detail in the design on the walls and all over the temple, blew my mind. Absolutely stunning. The firework display at the end of the night was amazing, over all I had a great experience. I do recommend visiting this place on a regular day, just so you can take your time to explore it properly, as the temple is very large with several areas inside and out. They also have a shop and a place to have food.

Architectural wise its a beautiful place. There is lot of grandeur to it. We could not visit the temple as it is closed from 1pm to 4pm. The place is well maintained. The canteen food quality and price is good. Pooja item prices are also reasonable. Must visit for peaceful and serene experience

Peaceful place, spent quality time meditating and worshipping the deity. Mandir architecture is incredible and lot of thoughtful craftsmanship in exteriors and interior of temple. It’s hand work with marble sculptures and wood sculptures. Even though temple is open most of the day, darshan is timed at certain hours of the day. Parking is plenty. There are peacocks near Mandir. Overall it’s a feast for eyes and soul.

PEACEFUL AND BEAUTIFUL! We went to this mandir during pandemic. The mandir was partially closed due to construction. It was a treat to our eyes. The mandir offer a mesmerizing architecture and clean prayer rooms. It also has a kitchen for fresh food and snacks. We had a great time with darshan and prayers.

This is a beautiful temple. It's a definite must see! The food/snacks are also very good!

Very grand temple .Architecture incredible. One of the best temple on architectural point of view. Very clean and well maintained. Cafeteria have great vegetarian food too. No photography allowed inside the temple. Free entry.

You just get enchanted by the architecture of this temple. It is quite peaceful and serene. We visited last week and experience was mesmerizing. We also purchased some food items and enjoyed pavbhaji, kachori chaat, dhokala and paneer chilly. Would certainly recommend this place.

Favorite temple around the area. I am not Indian nor practice this religion but I am very fascinated to learn about new cultures and traditions. I visited this temple with a friend and we were very shocked and amazed by not only the architecture but also what goes inside of the temples. We were so intrigued by the very fine details of the building. Just absolutely amazing. Also the shop has a-lot of nice things to buy including food and other souvenirs. Important: if you are a tourist or visitor know that you have to wear pants or something that covers your legs. This applies to both men and women. However in case you forget, they have a few pieces of cloth that you can use to cover up. Also don’t forget to take your shoes off once inside.
